It’s happening once again at the Cold Lake Emergency Department.
There is no physician coverage at the hospital ED, AHS said on Wednesday, from 11 p.m. tonight to 7 a.m. Thursday morning.
Nursing staff will remain on-site in emergency providing triage and assessments, and referrals for patients to alternate EDs in surrounding communities as needed.
Patients are asked to call 911 if they have a medical emergency. EMS will remain available to the community and will be re-routed to surrounding healthcare centres to ensure local residents continue to have access to the emergency services they need.
